The Stadnyk family endured the worst kind of pain in the early hours of January 7th, 2026.

It is with heavy hearts that we ask for support, for a family of six whose lives were forever changed by a devastating house fire. In a matter of moments, they lost their home, their belongings, and most tragically, their beloved 15 year old son, who had special needs.

Their son was a bright light in the lives of everyone who knew him. He brought joy, love, and a unique spirit that touched his family and community deeply. No parent should ever have to endure the pain of losing a child, and no family should have to face such overwhelming loss all at once.

The fire completely destroyed their home, leaving the family without shelter, clothing, furniture, and everyday necessities. As they grieve the unimaginable loss of their son, they are also facing the reality of starting over from nothing.

Funds raised will go directly toward:

Funeral and memorial expenses

Immediate living needs (clothing, food, temporary housing)

Rebuilding and long term recovery support

Counseling and support services for the family

This family is navigating profound grief while trying to remain strong for one another. Any donation, no matter the size, will help ease the financial burden and allow them the space to mourn, heal, and begin the long road forward.

If you are unable to donate, please consider sharing this fundraiser and keeping this family in your thoughts and prayers. Your kindness, love, and support mean more than words can express.

Thank you for standing with this family during their darkest time.
